Chapter 296: Still Missing Nails
Translator: 549690339
“Guest, please come in.”
The tall and skinny Nail Tooth Monster walked in, its footsteps creating a clapping sound all the way to Bai Youwei. Just like last time, it sat down in front of her, and then it tipped its head back and let its mouth fall open!
Last time, it had a mouthful of dense meaty suckers; this time, its mouth was full of nails.
Each nail stood erect in its mouth, wet with an oily saliva that made them glisten, their sharpness extreme!
Bai Youwei frowned at this.
There were still dozens of meaty suckers left unfilled in the monster’s mouth, convulsing constantly, and their sight was revolting.
Fortunately, Su Man had already filled more than half of them, or else if they were all clumped together she would probably faint on the spot from trypophobia.
The Nail Tooth Monster stayed still with its mouth wide open, like a children’s toy “Shark Teeth” – slightly careless and one might get bitten by it.
Bai Youwei picked up a nail and put it into the monster’s mouth. The sucker quickly attached itself to the nail, becoming one with it.
Some of the suckers were particularly small, so small that they were hard to find due to their constant contraction.
She held her breath and concentrated, gently putting in nails and counting silently
38 nails, fewer and fewer;
The mouth of the Nail Tooth Monster was getting fuller and fuller.
Bai Youwei’s expression gradually became somber.
She repeatedly glanced at the monster’s mouth and the nails in her hand, her eyebrows knitting tightly as sweat began to form on her brow.
Shen Mo sensed her uneasiness first, and asked, “Not enough nails?”
” Not enough,” Bai Youwei said with gritted teeth, “We are still ?4 nails short.”
The moment the words fell, everyone tensed up!
“Why are we still short?!” Li Li couldn’t believe it, “We counted before! It can only be lacking 38 nails at most! We found exactly 38! Is it still not enough?!”
“It should be 42 ” Bai Youwei said gravely, “The farthest sides of the upper and lower teeth have 4 tiny suckers ?very small. I only just noticed.”
“Slow down!” Yan Qingwen immediately said, “Li Li, Zhu Shu! Start looking to see if there are any nails left on the wheelchair that can be dismantled!”
Li Li and Zhu Shu hurriedly scoured the components of the wheelchair. Teacher Cheng and Pan Xiaoxin also joined in!
The Crystal Ball on the ground was also taken aback by this situation before it began to hoot with laughter!
“Didn’t expect that, did you? Even if you dismantle the wheelchair, it won’t be enough! From the moment you threw that boat away, you were destined to lose! Destined to die in autumn! This is what you get for being so arrogantly confident!”
The Crystal Ball flew into the mid-air, singing triumphantly:
“Ignorance and stupidity are not the biggest barriers to survival, arrogance is! Death awaits, humans! Wahahaha! ”
Bai Youwei tightened her lips.
The snoring sound from the Nail Tooth Monster’s throat seemed almost impatient with the speed she was installing the teeth.
Another nail was engulfed by a sucker.
She only had five nails left in her hand, and Yan Qingwen still hadn’t found any.
Bai Youwei picked up the penultimate fourth nail and slowly put it into the monster’s mouth.
Her heart was in her throat.
The sweat was dripping down her body.
She clenched her wet palms and said to Shen Mo, “Tell them to stop looking, go upstairs, find a place to hide ”
Shen Mo nodded and asked her, “Do you have the puzzle piece?”
“Yes,” she replied, “Don’t worry.”
She had the puzzle piece to save her life.
But what about Shen Mo?
His puzzle piece had been used up during the Truth or Dare game! Given his character, he definitely wouldn’t rob someone else of their puzzle piece!
Bai Youwei bit her lip, every single cell in her brain working in high gear! She was thinking of a way to survive! A way to clear the game!
Where in the world were the missing nails?!
Did the game really not leave them any chance at all?!
